This clip was recorded in my basement in the mid 1990's. Garland just fooling around on the lap steel.
Garland is also a GREAT pedal player. He has just been inducted into the GaSGA Wall Of Fame.

Thanks Bill for posting this video. Garland Nash is one of my Heros on Steel Guitar from the first time I heard him back in the 50's when he was playing with "Cousin" Zeke and The Virginia Valley Boys. Garland is , as you say, just as good on Pedal Steel.
Garland Nash, "Pepe" Pealer, Bryan Adams, Walter Haynes, Billy Bowman, Big Jim Webb and Sonny Burnette were all from East Tennessee/Southwest Virginia area and I was very fortunate to get to hear them all play, when I was first learning to play. |

What I found delightful was that Garland could play "Coconut Grove" in an Hawaiian style rather than the country/western style that many pedal steel players use on Hawaiian songs.  That demonstrated that he has a lot of versatility.
It was music to my ears.  He would fit right in, in our Hawaiian Steel conventions.
Thanks Bill for the post.
Aloha,
Don |
